Last week, we had the honor of hosting Biotechnology Innovation Organization CEO John F. Crowley and the BIO team at Nanoscope Therapeutics Inc. during their national “listening tour” of biotech hubs. It was a pleasure to show John around our Arlington labs and Dallas offices, where he generously met our team and shared his inspiring personal journey. Thank you, John, for the motivation and inspiration!
Later, we were thrilled to host a gathering of over two dozen biotech leaders from the Dallas area. We discussed the challenges and needs of emerging biotech companies in Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas with the BIO team. The exchange of ideas for solutions and growth was incredibly valuable.
A big thanks to John Crowley and the BIO team for spending time with us in Dallas!

A 12-year-old Swiss biotech seeks to make its mark in the space of anti-tau Alzheimer's medicines, and it's moving ahead in the same niche as the field's two biggest drugmakers: Eli Lilly and Biogen. With a $100 million Series C, Asceneuron hopes to prove that an O-GlcNAcase (OGA) inhibitor can help thwart or slow down cognitive declines and do so with an oral treatment, rather than complex and healthcare-straining infusions.
“Lilly will hopefully validate this class later on this year, and then we are second after that in a very large market,” Naveed Siddiqi said in an interview with Endpoints News. The Novo Holdings venture investments senior partner said it’s believed that tau is “more highly correlated with the loss of your cognition than amyloid is.”
